Yeah, I have to have faith in the ex that these will show up! He is a manger at a LBS in Albuquerque, and the Mavic rep came in saying they had deals on the 07 carbone pro's for employees(only like 10 sets left). He knew I was looking for new wheels and he called me. I couldn't turn it down! It is insane how cheap I am getting them(a little less then the AC 420s).Originally Posted by silver
Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll celebrate for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah! New Mavics!
of course, the real celebration shall not begin until you have them in your grimy hands! (seeing as I've ordered two pairs now and still don't have wheels)
Please post as some as you touch them! and post pictures as validation that you actually received them to redeem my faith in humanity.
So they were ordered yesterday, they get shipped to albuquerque and then from albuquerque they make the journey to me in south florida!
But.. they are tubulars, so pretty much only going to be used for racing- not going to be training on them often.

NEWFLASH!!!!!
The american classic wheels mysteriously appeared at my door today!!!! OMG! I LOVE THEM!!! Seller says that the package was returned as undeliverable the first time.
Anyway! I've got them!!! now to get them put together. I don't have the tools to put them together myself so I've got to take them in.
Actually I'm going to have ceramic bearings put in and have them put the cassette on.
I need a scale to weigh them on. Oh! I'll go get pictures!"Being retired from Biking...isn't that kinda like being retired from recess?" Stephen Colbert asked of Lance Armstrong
